Question for AH 2.0 and 2.1 owners?

I am in the market for a new preamp and looking for the following physical/mechanical requirements:

balanced in/outs
remote control
HT pass through or unit gain

I have certainly read quite a bit of interesting comments on the AH preamp and also some accusations in other posts, but a trial period will ultimately tell the value for me.

My questions are:

Does the 2.1 have an HT pass through or unity gain, I didn't see a reference to this on the AH site.

Can anybody comment on the suspected symetry with Watt/Puppys (5.1) and Krell FBP amps? Soundstaging depth, width and focusing abilities of the 2.0/2.1? Smoothness in the treble region? Balance along the entire frequency range?

Thanks, ckoffend
FWIW, I did communicate with Victor at AH regarding the HT passthrough and it was reported to me that it is an option or feature than can be integrated into the preamps, and at a very, very reasonable price. IMHO, this is a real plus with this preamp and AH should consider promoting this as a viable option as in my opinion, it opens up the market for this preamp. We have all seen the numbers of Threads of people looking for preamps (tubed or SS) with HT passthrough and/or unity gain. While these preamps/features are becoming much more common there are some shoppers who will not consider preamps that do not have this feature.
